Animated GIF

I everyone, I am new to web production... I am a print person... I have been asked to update a portion of our website, I have avoided web work like the plague. I can't avoid it any longer... Not that I wouldn't mind learning...

I need help. I am trying to learn how to make an animated GIF without flash. I have access to dreamweaver, photoshop and imageready.

I created a quicky in Imageready. I have three images that I want to fade into one another and then loop back to the beginning. The initial GIF i created in image ready was 19 frames... It was super fast. I slowed it down by increasing the frames... it is a 1mb file... way too big.

I made the images 72ppi and saved them as GIFs with 256 color palette (I also tried 128 color palette, not much of a size difference).

The end product measures 432p x 583p: Selective, 128 Colors, 100% Diffusion Dither, 47 frames, Transparency on, No Transparency Dither, Non-Interlaced, 0% Web S

Please help.
